Since its release in 1982, it has become the title track of the best-selling album in human history, "THRILLER," and has become a classic with numerous house remakes.
Of all the songs that Michael Jackson left behind, this is the one that many people think of first, and it's a representative song that needs no introduction. Surprisingly, it never reached number one on the Billboard charts, peaking at number four. Produced by QUINCY JONES. A perfect classic as both a disco track and pop music.
